Overall Satisfaction with Apptio Cloudability

Apptio Cloudability is a cost analysis tool that helps us keep track of what we are using within Azure Cloud. It has helped us keep track of specific costs and breakdown by application owner (with appropriate tagging). This tool also helps us decide future spending requirements.
  • Cost Analysis
  • Spending breakdown by Product/Application
  • Forecast of cost for future budget spending
  • Setup of account to communicate with Cloud Providers
  • Tagging documentation
  • Cloudability has showed where we can cut cost as it pertains to cloud spending
  • Report generation to stakeholders makes it easy for non-technical stakeholders to understand what the product is spending.
  • Ease of use as it pertains to dashboard creation
Communicating with your cloud provider, depending on your security model, can be somewhat difficult if you are not that well-versed in Cloud Security. Our initial setup required an Azure App registration but once that was set up for us, hooking it into Cloudability was simple. For organizations that require enhanced security, your setup might take a while. Also, make sure appropriate tagging of all your Cloud infrastructure and services are set up. This part is critical if you want accurate reports.

Cloudability is far easier to use when it comes to detailed cost analysis as well as setting up reports.
